建筑师提供的文字说明。Piacenza建筑是由一个委员会在一个指定为中等增长发展的小型地点设计多住宅建筑而产生的。然而，从7到10层的建筑包围了场地，但由于场地的面积，我们只允许开发五层和六楼，双方都有较大的挫折。

Text description provided by the architects. The Piacenza Building arises from a commission to design a multi-residential building on a small site designated for medium rise development. Constructions from 7 to 10 storeys surround the site, however, given the site area, we were only allowed to develop five storeys and a sixth floor with larger setbacks on the sides.

项目的挑战在于如何将这一明显的劣势转化为一个区别的标志。我们建议这种设计要与周围的建筑形成鲜明的对比，通常是高大、笨重，并且具有典型的住宅公寓楼特征。我们的建议是小规模，低密度，并使用材料，如暴露在现场混凝土和膨胀金属板在外面。因此，该建筑看起来更适合现场，但也是独特的，突出其周围。管制限制在其简单和纯粹的几何学中是显而易见的，上层被规划为一个覆盖在较低混凝土体积的黑匣子，而朝向街道的梯田则被设计成悬挂在前院的薄板。

The challenge of the project resides in how to turn this apparent disadvantage into a mark of distinction. We proposed the design to be in explicit contrast to the surrounding buildings, typically tall, bulky, and having a typical residential apartment building character. Our proposal suggests a small scale, low density, and using materials such as exposed in situ concrete and expanded metal sheets on the outside. Thus, the building looks more appropriate for the site yet also unique, standing out among its surrounding. Regulatory constraints are clearly evident in its simple and pure geometry, and the upper level is planned as an overlaid black box to the lower concrete volume, while, towards the street, the terraces are designed as thin slabs cantilevered over the front yard.

进入大楼的通道是一条小路，两侧是一座植物围墙，向公共空间开放，紧靠着一堵被照亮的墙。这面墙涂上了膨胀的金属片，在地面的整个正面投射出暗淡而生机勃勃的光。

The access to the building is through a path flanked by a planter walled landscape open to the public space and next to an illuminated wall. This wall is coated with expanded metal sheets, which casts a dim and vibrant light over the entire facade on the ground level.

 Ground Floor

一旦进入，一个带接待台的门厅，覆盖着雪松，通向底层的社区空间和大楼的上层。

Once inside, a foyer with a reception table, clad in cedar, leads towards the community spaces on the ground floor and to the upper levels of the building.

 Axonometric

这里有32套不同类型的公寓，从两间卧室的复式公寓到一楼向私人后院开放的更大的公寓。

There are 32 apartments with different typologies, ranges from two bedroom duplexes to larger apartments opening to private backyards on the ground floor.

在顶层，有一个公共区域提供烧烤设施和一个“观望池”。

On the top floor, a common area is provided with barbecue facility and a ‘lookout pool’.

从总体上看，皮亚琴察大厦可以开发出符合多层住宅建筑严格规范和参数的项目，并提供了一种新的解决方案，使项目从典型的建筑形式中脱颖而出。

Overall, the Piacenza building shows that it is possible to develop a project that meets the strict rules and parameters of multi-storey residential buildings, and also provides a new solution which makes the project stand out from the typical built form.
